Police Departments

The Exeter Police Department is dedicated to the fair and impartial enforcement of laws and ordinances to protect human life, property, and to maintain the public peace. In accomplishing our mission of protection and service, the members of this agency will respect Constitutional rights, human dignity and community values.

We commit ourselves to the enhancement of police-community partnerships, and will assist the members of our community with the identification and resolution of problems, in the effort to improve the quality of life in our community.

We will give the highest quality of law enforcement services possible, while continuously striving for the highest professional standards.

Our approach is one of a Community Oriented Government; it is developing a working partnership between City Elected Officials, City Department Staff, School District Personnel, Business Community Members, and our Residents. We encourage each resident to be part of this cooperative effort. This can be accomplished in the simplest form of being a good neighbor and staying informed about your community. It takes involvement from everyone in our community to ensure that we create a safer community to live, work, and play in.
